On February 13, 2023, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) started off with much excitement, and a grand opening ceremony was held at the Multan Cricket Stadium.
Cricket fans around the world were presented with a visual treat when famous Pakistani musicians and artists performed at the event. Abdullah Siddiqui, Asim Azhar, Faris Shafi, and Shae Gill performed the PSL 8 song for the first time during the opening ceremony, which was the primary event.
Lahore Qalandars defeated Multan Sultans in the opening game by one run in a match that was nothing short of a thriller. In response, Mohammad Rizwan of Multan Sultans looked to chase down the goal with his knock of 75 off 50 deliveries, enabling Qalandars to score 175/6 at the end of their innings. Fakhar Zaman made 66 off 42 deliveries for the team.
The star bowler for the Karachi Kings, Mohammad Amir, has declared that it makes no difference to him whether he faces Babar Azam or a tailender hitter since he is only interested in carrying out his task, which is to take a wicket.
Supporters expressed genuine excitement for the match between the Kings and Peshawar Zalmi when Babar joined the Yellow Storm for the eighth season of the Pakistan Super League.
Babar Azam, the captain of Peshawar Zalmi, got a good start to his innings when he hit Mohammad Amir, a former teammate, for his famous cover drive with the first ball of his innings.
When Babar faced Imad Wasim in his first over after Mohammad Haris and Saim Ayub early, he was careful. However, Babar also took advantage of the situation after Tom Kohler-Cadmore smashed Imad for three sixes and blasted a short pitched delivery from a left-arm spinner through the covers.
The left-arm pacer was angry and threw the following ball at Babar in desperation because Amir thought Babar was finished when he flipped him for another boundary.
A short delivery from Imad was cut by Babar and sent for a boundary as he reached his fifty in 39 balls.
After achieving his fifty, Babar increased the chances and hammered Andrew Tye for a six, two fours, and two sixes in one over.
The Zalmi captain was finally bowled by Imran Tahir and caught on long off.
The left-arm pacer recently told a local television station that his goal is to get wickets regardless of the batsman who is at the crease.
“These kinds of matchups and player rivalries keep players on their toes. I personally like these sorts of challenges because it keeps me focused,”
said Amir
“My job is to take wickets and win matches for my team, so for me, facing Babar or a tailender batting at number 10 will be the same,”
